Wow, where do I start? You guys are all so great
Jkmfrog, thank you, and I will be PMing you soon. I had many more resources when I lived in Raleigh, so out here is much more frustrating. San Diego was fairly easy to get help, but of course then I wasn't as aware I needed it! I'm not familiar with most of the abbrev. used in your quote, and I want to make sure I know what I"m looking for, so when I PM you, that info would be so helpfull.
Charran, don't be so hard on yourself sweetie! Its not always easy to know what to think or say. And I'm so glad it doesn't change how you feel.
I still get wary around other mentally ill people, and I feel bad about it, but its something that needs to be worked through for everybody. Thanks for taking that step.
Serea, thanks for the support, and I had never heard of the emotions group, I'll have to check into that. I know I'm a super strong person, but the mind is a strong thing too, and when its telling you your weak and can't do anything, it can be a nasty fight! I hope some more people with mental health issues will join us. Talk to you all soon!!
